I'm melting just by listening to this sweet, sweet, lovely pop.....

=== Yoshihiko Koezuka ===
This song was created in a slightly different way than usual.<br>
I had been working on the melody, lyrics, and arrangement in my head every night in the car on the way home from work since I finished my previous project (around the time "Moonlight walkin'" was completed). And then, when everything came together perfectly in my head (I thought, "I'm a genius!"), I tried to put it into sound, but it was pretty terrible... (I thought, "I'm not a genius!"). After many revisions, the orchestra was completed, and after vivi's wonderful voice was added, everything came together exactly as I had pictured it in my head. (<span style="color:red">Next week, we plan to do an artist interview with vivi, so please look forward to it!</span>)<br>
After the song was completed, I had a careful discussion with Mocchy about the clip, and we came up with a very cute result.<br>
My favorite is the main character (a girl named Rose), who was illustrated exactly as I had imagined.<br>
The other characters include Arai the raccoon, and Nakajima, who is making his second appearance, so look out for them!

=== Mocchy ===
Well, this clip was created in a slightly different way than usual. (Huh?)<br>
After the main girl character (Rose) was finalized, I typically think "Me = Director ・ Character = Actor".<br>
I usually proceed in the same way.... However, for this clip the director was Koezuka.<br>
Director Koezuka and I had numerous discussions as the production went on... Rose and I gradually became one! Not physically, but emotionally.<br>
When Rose was smiling happily, I was happy too, and it was really painful when I was drawing a scene where she was sad. (I was like Kitajima○○ in the role)
 
"Sweet Illusion" is cute, gentle, and a little sad song.<br>
What do you all think of it?
